Looking for Dog Trainer Hi All - I am looking for a dog trainer to take my \~1yr old dog to around the Triangle area. Since most trainers are not cheap, I'd really appreciate a referral if you know of a good one.

Needing training for my leash-reactive dog ❤️ My pup is a rescue and I’m at a loss with how to help him. He’s extremely leash reactive. We rarely go on walks where there will be other dogs: if we encounter another dog, he barks madly, runs around, and sometimes attacks my other dog, his sister :( I adopted him from an abusive situation so I know that must have something to do with his reactivity. It’s only when he’s leashed, because they go to daycare and interact great with other pups. He’s also a chihuahua mix, so the Napoleon complex doesn’t help

I used https://dynamicdogsnc.com/ for my leash reactive dog. Patrice is fantastic!
Any local dog trainer recommendations? Hey everyone! I am looking for some recommendations of any good dog trainers, preferably boarding, in the Raleigh area. I went through K9 Offleash's program when my dog was a puppy (he just turned 2yo), but it didn't work too well since he grew quite a bit shortly after and got a lot more energetic.
I do not intend on returning back to Offleash since it is a shock collar program that made him more scared than obedient. I'm open to hearing recommendations for all training programs, but my preference is a boarding program for a more thorough experience.
Let me know!

I highly recommend https://dynamicdogsnc.com/ and the trainer Patrice. I tried Sit Means Sit first and the shock collar just wasn't it for my dog. Patrice is all positive reinforcement, and my dog adores her and really took to her training. We did in home training for several weeks. I really also recommend learning yourself. I took the lessons from her and are beginning to apply them to my new dog (but I'll also do one of her group classes).

I used Dynamic Dogs and had a great experience after a horrific experience with Sit Means Sit. I've used Patrice for 2 of my dogs, one who has major anxiety issues, and I can't recommend her enough. She's even taken the time to have admittedly long phone calls with me about random issues I've asked about. BTW don't board your dog for training. Your dog needs to be trained by YOU. If someone else does it, it won't stick as well. Training is as much about training the owner as the dog.
Dog trainer recommendation- please help. My chocolate lab needs help, Bobby is 2.5 years old, we did the Petco classes for a few months of Sunday’s. Looking for the next level of training, maybe a week or two boarding class?
Anyone have any experience with Sit means Sit? Any other companies?
